====Succession Wars====
 
====Succession Wars====
 
The strong bonds forged between these two worlds served them well until the [[First Succession War]]. Agents of the [[Lyran Commonwealth]] tried to turn the worlds against their [[Draconis Combine]] masters. Pushing too far, the [[Draconis Combine Admiralty]] arrived with several [[WarShips]] and destroyed the city of DeGuilles, home of the government departments that oversaw both of the Kaus planets. Kaus Media and Kaus Australis quickly sued for peace and got back to their trade agreements. Each world now oversees more of its own affairs, but they do maintain a close relationship. It is important to note that generally the residents of Kaus Australis and Kaus Media are not disloyal to the states that oversee them; rather they tend to think of the effect any proposal will have on their worlds first and the overseeing state second.<ref name=DARWp16/>

Kaus Media has five continents named Emparos, Romana, Hyadamos, Gaul, and Normano.<ref name=DARWp16/>
+
Kaus Media is a pleasant, terrestrial world with wide, deep oceans, expansive forests and jungles, and varied—yet normally mild—seasons. Yet, for all its natural splendor, the first colonists to explore and exploit this world quickly realized that the lack of easily reached indigenous metals and minerals would doom all efforts to develop their new home. The ancient city of DeGuilles was destroyed and never rebuilt and the new planetary capital, Vanguard City, located just forty kilometers to the north on the continent of Emparos, governs the affairs of this world, and maintains a diplomatic office for the benefit of its neighbor. Aside from Emparos, Kaus Media‘s other four major continents are Romana, Hyadamos, Gaul, and Normano. All but Gaul, the planet‘s frozen south polar continent, are populated with various small and medium-sized commercial and rural towns scattered along the shores of various rivers and lakes.<ref name=DARWp16/>
